Classic Cabernet based blend, pencil shavings, currants, perfectly ripe and firm tannins. A complete and refined wine, well balanced, should go the distance aging.

Deep purple color with bluish black tones. Aromas of black fruits – BlackBerries, black cherries, black plums on the nose. complex on the palate with almost a baked black fruit giving way to mocha, vanilla and licorice. Firm tanins for great backbone and a long finish. Outstanding!
